Is “If God Brings You to It, He Will Bring You Through It” in the Bible?

Read Time:10 Minute, 33 Second No. “If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it” is not in the Bible. It is not a verse, and it is not a loose quote of one. We searched every one of the 31,102 verses in the King James Bible. The words “bring you through” never appear. Neither does “brings you to it.” Nobody knows who first said it, either. The oldest dated copy we could find, from 2005, already lists the author as unknown. That is the short answer. The longer answer is kinder than the saying, and it is worth staying for. Because the Bible does make a promise to people in deep water. It is just not the one on the mug. Is “If God Brings You to It, He Will Bring You Through It” in the Bible? Almost everyone assumes it is, and it is easy to see why. It sounds like scripture. It has the rhythm of a proverb. It gets said in hospital corridors and at gravesides by people who love us, and we trust the people who say it.
